Hey guys...currently I have 3.73's in my car...the car is a 91 GT 5 speed vert...the following mods are done:
GT-40X heads
GT-40 intake
FTI cam
rest of the bolt ons...I want to swithch gears from 3.73 to 4.10 or even a 4.30...would 4.30 be too much for a 5.0L? Would I run out of gear by the end of the 1320? with 3.73 I cross the 1/4mile at around 5400RPM...I really want to try out 4.30...I know I will need suspension to keep the tires on the ground...anyone have any input on this...? The car will not see much highway use...mostly on the street and occasional strip...Pretty much I think it would be a waste if I went from 3.73 to 4.10...I like the idea of 4.30 but not sure how that will mix with the 5.0L...many people running 4.30 with the 4.6 but that's a different animal...input would be appriciated...
thanks
